My wii fit was working perfectly fine when i purchased it, then about a month or so later the wi fit game didnt recognise the balance board, so when it said please turn the power button on and i did, it no longer said you can step on me now. i changed the batteries, didnt work so i thought something was wrong with the balance board and i got it replaced! The problem still exists though :s

When you power on the wii fit board, does the light flash continuously? If so, you will need to sync your board with your wii again. You can get instructions on how to do so here: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wii/en_na/ts/balanceBoard.jsp

Here's what I think I figured out. The balance board powers off for the cardio boxing because it is not needed. The movements are measured by the hand remote and nunchuck not the balance board. The "bob" is still tricky to time right; great workout trying (sure hope I can walk tomorrow)! The trick is to move when the indicator square turns yellow. Good Luck! Hope this helps you!

your board may well need to be synched to the wii again, try that. if the battery pack still rfuses to work, try some AA batteries first, then resynch it. If it still refuses to work suspect your battery pack has discharged and replace it.

Open the front cover on your Wii, then push the red button there, then open the batteries cover on your Wii Fit and push the red button there.When the board is sync put the wii fit disc in console and follow the instruction.

that somtimes happens if you want it to synch press the synch button on the wii and the balance board for about 5-10 secs then once there synched press (A) on the wii controller and theat should do it thats how i got mine to work Hope this helped :)

Guest: Rechargable batteries are only 1.2 V each. You should get up to 4.8 V.

I highly suggest running your Wii Fit on nothing other than Alkaline batteries. I've had my Wii Fit for over 3 months and still use the original batteries.

If you feel like you need rechargables, that's fine, but I recommend a quality set of regular AA rechargable batteries that comes with a quick charger (IE: 1-hour). Stick to the same brand of batteries and buy enough for each Wii-Mote, Wireless Guitar, Wii Fit Balance Board, etc.

Amy - Keep in mind that your Wii Fit balance board will ONLY turn on when your program (ie: Wii Fit) is loaded and ready to go. Since the balance board takes up one of the four available Wii-Mote channels, make sure all but one Wii-Mote is turned off before starting Wii-Fit.

make sure you have the board the right way around! i know it sounds silly but mine did this and all you have to do is make sure the power button is facing away from the tv! i dont know if that solves your problem but it solved mine!
